Going Home

Posted on June 1, 2010

Sittting on a Continental 757 at Newark waiting for the other passengers to board. It was good trip to NJ to visit with family and celebrate a birthday, but after too much (good) food and drink I will be glad to get back to my home and my routine. New York bagels, pizza, home cooked lasaga, cheesecake, BBQ, beer, wine... about a zillion Weight Watchers points!

Due to the last minute nature of the trip, I am stuck with a middle seat. I do not have a middle seat body. I hope the passenger next to me is a child, dwarf, or Kate Moss.

Uh oh. Young couple just sat down in row in front with a 2 year old...

Mets Trip

Posted on April 22, 2010

Mobile blogging from my Droid using the WordPress app. No spell check, this should be interesting. I reserve the right to correct misspellings and typos from my laptop later today.

Sitting on the plane at Orlando Airport, waiting for the flight attendant to tell us to turn off all devices for takeoff. I will be in NJ visiting family and then off to see Braves vs. Mets on Saturday at 1:10pm. This is my first game at Citi Field. I hope it surprises me. I am not a fan of this small stadium. Shea was ugly, but it was as big and loud as New York. It also looked like it belonged to the Mets. Citi looks like the home of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Note to Mets owners, the Wilpons...The Dodgers left town over 50 years ago. Get over it!

Time to stress out over the take off...not a fan of flying. Flying is fine, it's the crashing that I don't like. Gotta start my pre-flight OCD rituals. Let's Go Mets!
